Yes, I am now probiotics rather than antibiotics. Taking the latter is making me quite nauseous. A few friends suggested taking the former to counter the latter. It was a good suggestion. However, it’s wearing off, and the nausea is returning. I am out of sorts, out of energy, and almost running out of time… Continue Reading

Charlotte Sometimes–Before You See It
Ed. Note: This is mostly fine to read before seeing the movie. I will indicate where you might want to stop reading if you want to watch the last ten minutes of the movie without knowing what’s going to happen. 4:44 a.m. 6/3/4/04 I have a new favorite movie, and it’s called Charlotte Sometimes. Now,… Continue Reading
Batman Begins–Before You See It
Ed. Note: I labeled this a before you see it review because there aren’t many spoilers in a Hollywood blockbuster. However, if you really don’t want to know anything before watching this movie, then you may want to read this after. Consider yourself forewarned. 3:48 a.m. 7/3/4/05 I am Batman. No, I’m not, but I… Continue Reading
Godspell–BEFORE You See It
10:50 p.m. 5/12/06 Ok. I like musicals. I am able to suspend my critical eye when it comes to plot, characters, etc. I don’t expect as much, narratively, as long as there is kick-ass music. Oh, some dancing is nice, too, but not required. I had read good things about Godspell, so I decided to… Continue Reading
The UK On My Mind
Still under the weather, and I have to do more cleaning. So, for today, I am posting old essays that wax poetic on all things, er, people British. I have a fascination with British people (including Scottish, Irish, and Welsh), and I have no rational explanation for it. Just a note in general. I recently… Continue Reading
Love, Britishly
1:34 a.m. 12/30/31/04 I have come upon a dichotomy within that I truly cannot explain. It’s been a slow realization, but now I must acknowledge it. I love Brits. Why is this a dichotomy? Because I hate their country. Now, that’s probably not fair of me because it was twelve and a half years ago… Continue Reading
British Fetish
3:43 a.m. 1/7/8/05 I’m in dire need of an intervention before I fall deeper into my current obsession. It shames me to say it, but I, a staunch supporter of equality and diversity and all that shit, am actually fetishizing a whole race of people. I feel like Huey Freeman felt in The Boondocks when… Continue Reading
More Things Brit
3:41 a.m. 1/14/15/05 It never ends. That’s something Alan Rickman says in Dogma, and it’s true with my never-ending thirst for all things British. Correction: All things UK. I’m surprised I didn’t become hornier watching Liam Neeson in Kinsey as he’s an Irish lad as well, but he doesn’t do much for me. Neither does… Continue Reading
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
Subtitled: The Ghost of W. Ok. You know the drill by now. I am sick; I don’t feel like writing something new; I have tons of old writing to dump on you. Besides, I didn’t feel comfortable publishing these during the W. era, so I waited until now. I should be safe, right? Another reason… Continue Reading
CIA Flap
Ed. Note: I’m not exactly sure when this was written, but it’s several years ago now. In rereading it, I see that it was written sometime in late 2003/early 2004. It still pisses me off. I watch the flap being made over the ‘news’ that the CIA fucked up the reports from Iraq, and it… Continue Reading
